Naya Estimation AI (manufacturing costing)

Naya

Naya Estimation AI gives product teams instant manufacturing cost intelligence — from images & sketches to Fusion® Models and BOMs, at any stage of design. Weeks of estimation, done in minutes.

Trial

Naya Estimation AI turns a multi-week estimation process into minutes. Import your Autodesk® Fusion® 3D model and get an accurate manufacturing cost estimate, fast. Teams see massive ROI with paybacks within a few months of implementation.

 

How it works

  1. Start at any stage - add a design brief, sketch, image, 3D model, drawing, PDF, BOM, and more.
  2. Add a few product details - order quantity, manufacturing location, packaging needs, and arrival point.
  3. Add reference data sources (if you have them) - quotes, labor rates, material pricing, or we will help find the relevant info for you.
  4. Run Naya's Estimation AI - agents, mathematics, proprietary database searches, and expert knowledge combine to generate an accurate estimate.
  5. Receive your estimate in minutes - materials, parts, labor, overhead, tooling costs, and manufacturing processes, plus opportunities for reducing costs.
  6. Make adjustments - modify order quantities, manufacturing locations, material types, and more.

 

Optimize Costs Early In The Process

Get cost clarity at any stage, from sketch to image to Fusion 3D model. Make critical decisions early to reduce overall production costs.

Save Time With Rapid Iterations

Get a brand-new estimate in minutes, not weeks. Or add feedback to modify an existing one. Compare the impact of materials, geometries, order quantities, and manufacturing locations. No email chains, no waiting, and no more burning out your suppliers.

 

See How Design Decisions Affect Cost

Every estimate includes a full cost breakdown, along with built-in opportunities to reduce costs and evaluate scenarios. Change a material, shift a manufacturing location, or adjust order quantities and see the impact immediately.

 

Expert-In-The-Loop Validation At Every Step

Review, adjust, and guide the estimate as it is built. Your expertise is incorporated in real time, so every estimate reflects both AI intelligence and your real-world knowledge.

 

Built-in Industry Knowledge, Not Generic

AI Naya's Skills engine leverages built-in industry knowledge models across verticals. Generic AI doesn't know that ceramic firing has a 5-15% breakage rate, or that footwear outsole tooling amortizes differently at 10K vs 100K pairs; we do. Accurate, actionable estimates across:

  • Apparel & Fashion
  • Consumer Electronics
  • Consumer Goods
  • Furniture
  • Electronics Manufacturing
  • Automotive
  • Industrial Automation
  • Medical & Healthcare
  • Jewelry & Luxury Goods
  • Sporting Goods
  • & More

Even More Accurate With Your Own Data

Connect your organization's internal datasets, proprietary knowledge, quotes, labor rates, and pricing data to generate estimates grounded in your reality. The more context Naya has, the more accurate your estimates become.

Enterprise-Grade Security And Compliance

  • Your data stays yours: Product designs, BOMs, and pricing data are never used to train models or shared across accounts. Your competitive intelligence stays exactly that.
  • Enterprise-grade compliance: High-level security compliance, including independent audits.
  • Private deployment: Available for teams with strict data sovereignty requirements.

 

Measurable ROI From Day One

Faster estimates mean faster quotes, shorter sales cycles, and better margin control.

  • "Saves close to 70% of the time for my team and aims to increase revenue 65%" — VP Product, MillerKnoll 
  • "Helps us move faster and makes products less expensive to manufacture" — Director of Design, Bose
  • "Gives our design team better guidance upfront" — Director of Design, New Balance 
  • "Increases estimate volume by $100M and 10% conversion rate aims to increase revenue by $10M" — COO, NAC
